AN Industrial School for youthful
offenders has for long time. been
sadly needed in this city and county
Often has the establishment Of such
an institution been demanded by the
press. But up to the present time nc
really earnest effort in this direction
has been made by anyone. Now,
however, the need of such place for
the confinement of young culprits,
especially boy criminals, is forcing
itself on the attention of the authori-
ties with redoubled emphasis. Ger
tain members OF the City Council have
taken the matter up in earnest, and
some action of definite and pro-
gressive character is pretty sure to re-
suit. 1t is known that the Board OF
Supervisors has in mind the selling OF
the County Hospital, and the thought
has been set in motion to secure
the buildings and grounds now used
ior the shelter OF the indigents and
sick OF the county as home for
boys guilty of crimes which demand
their restraint for time. To shut
these youthful culprits up in a cell
with fellows who have grown grey in
the commission Of crime, is the best
way possible to harden these errine
boys, and set them for good and all in
the paths of vice. Proper treatment
may reclaim some, and retard all in
such a downward career, and it is
economy to use all proper methods
for the reformation Of such boys
Success in some form ought to come
to the efforts now making in this good
work.
